I'm on my 3rd Ski Doo Tundra..... I love them.
X2, 2010 tundra here and lovin it
I have another alternative "if" you can find one in the lower 48. The Yamaha Bravo. It's a true working sled that's light weight and economical. Plenty of room for your gear too. Perfect trapper sled.If your into "retro" how about the Ski doo Elan!!!!! Still see them out and about years after they were made.
Id look at the new bearcat 570 fans wt 24 inch track two up seat long track two stroke nice machine for fishing and not gonna break the bank
I was wondering what snowmobile you guys in the true north rely on? I really don’t have a lot of experience with them but if I want to expand my horizons, I figure someday I will need one. I have heard talk about the Ski Doo Skandic being a good choice for the heavy snows that accompany things like chasing trout, venturing into back woods lakes, and an occasional trap line.If fishing and survival are top priorities what brands and models do you guys suggest?Thanks in advance!

That is a classic Hoppy! What is it? I love old sleds and have a couple under tarp that are getting ready for the garage... The glory days of snowmobiling, when there were a hundred different makes of snowmachines available to the consumer.
My first and ONLY snowmachine was a 1969 Rupp Sno-Sport, 12hp (275cc) one lunger SACHS engine. First machine to come on the market with an all aluminum tunnel plus the fiberglass cowl that hinged at the front to open. Weighed in at 280 lbs. and you rode it like a dirt bike....totally with body english. Was one heck of a trail breaker when the Cats were burning up their belts plowing snow.
That's a classic right there. Still have it?
Rupp made some fantastic sleds. I cant say this enough but its a shame so many of these companys didnt make it. Id love to see some modern day machines from these companys.
Just added a 2011 550F Tundra LT to the stable!
